Fatigue Analysis

Fatigue analysis is essential for designing reliable and durable products by assessing the likelihood of structural failure after repeated loading cycles. It identifies potential failure points to prevent malfunctions and catastrophic events. The analysis employs three main methods: Stress Life, Strain Life, and Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics.

Basics of

Fatigue Analysis
Fatigue analysis is a critical step in
designing and optimizing products that
require high reliability and durability.
It involves calculating whether a
structure will fail after a certain number
of repeated loading and unloading
cycles.
Fatigue analysis is intended for solutions
to structures in a large number of
loading cycles.
It helps identify the points of failure and
prevent product malfunctions, recalls, or
even catastrophic events.
A fatigue analysis is performed to
calculate whether a structure will fail
after a certain number of repeated
loading and unloading, so-called load
cycles, rather than after one load cycle
as simulated in a static analysis.
There are three well established
methods for calculating fatigue; Stress
Life, Strain Life, and Linear Elastic
Fracture Mechanics.
